Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Lycan wins the Death Prophet vs Lycan matchup: Lycan beats Death Prophet in 52.84% of 776 ranked matches.
The decision to pit Lycan against Death Prophet often hinges on which team is better equipped to force objectives. Both heroes want to hit a timing and run at towers, creating a tense race. Lycan creates a major problem for Death Prophet, as his wolves and other summons will soak up most of the damage from Exorcism, effectively neutralizing her ultimate in a direct confrontation. However, her Crypt Swarm can also clear those summons to slow his push, and a well-timed Silence can be crippling if it catches him before he uses Shapeshift. The winner is usually decided by which hero gets to execute their objective-focused game plan first.
